I am running a website that contains an IFrame, and changing the URL requires to add (#) among the URL, for example: google.com/#/docs
And what i am trying to do is to change the URL in an IFrame without (#) to make it more easy for users, for example: google.com/docs
I've seen that "Reverbnation.com" do have the technology to change URLs in an IFrames but withouth (#)
Please advice.
Thanks,
I've never tried it before, but I think this is what you need:

When I add a website (url) to a user in wordpress, it automatically gets "http://" added to the start of the url. Is there a way to stop this happening? It is causing other plugins to not function properly as I call on the user_url but need the http to not be present?
edit: i have tried editing user-edit.php to change the "Website:" field input type to text instead of url, but no avail.
Thanks, Nick
What plugins are causing issues with that? It usually works perfect and must not have any issues as per my opinion.
but there is one trick that MIGHT work in this scenario : using Protocol relative URLs
So instead of putting user website as "www.yahoo.com", try putting "//www.yahoo.com" and see if it works for you.
I've been googling and looking at various options but could not seem to be able to find a perfect solution that works in what I'm attempting...so needing some help here.
The situation/environment that I have is the following:
Parent page (which has the iframe) - is on a different domain, and the only control I have is a portion of the body tag, where it is updated via an admin console using html/WYSIWG editor. No access to head tag or even hosting jscript in their domain.
Child page (iframe) - is hosted in our domain, and we have full control.
The parent site is actually 3rd party online stores where we have products there, and we want to put in common information that we can control on our end without having to edit each individual product listing one by one.
I've tried alot of options found but it does not seem to work as either they need to include in js file or access to the head tag in the parent page.
So wondering if there are any other options that can help us on this?
I'm afraid you need access to JavaScript on both domains to do this.
Could you get the 3rd online store to host a small JS library that all their clients could then use to solve this problem? I work on a project that allows third parties to add in iFrames and produced this little project for just this reason. When any one say they want to be able have their iFrame resize to content, we point to the iFrame js file and say include this on your page.

Sorry, that's not quite the answer your after, but trying asking the store to support this and they might be open to the idea, as I expect others have the same issue with their site.
I had a video that stopped being controllable when I appended a safety feature: I added
"&origin=http://mydomain.com" to the attributes of the iframe that had the video. (By not controllable I mean that the youtube api stopped working). So I decided to use the "sandbox" feature, which is also for security.
Unfortunately, it works too well - it blocks content too.
So if all I want to do is prevent the iframe from causing mischief, but I also want to play third party videos, should I use:
sandbox=""
or
sandbox="allow-same-origin"
I don't quite understand it from the W3schools description.
Thanks,
You should be able to set the origin= parameter on the URL that you include as the src= for your iframe tag.
One thing to try is URL escaping the :// characters in the parameter's value, e.g. origin=http%3A%2F%2F//mydomain.com. Does that help? If so, we'll get the example updated to reflect the need to escape.
If that doesn't help, could you please provide the full iframe tag, including all the attributes and their values, that you're using?
origin only works on html pages, not on asp.net pages. I tested it.
I am working on a project in drupal in which i have an iframe loaded in another website.
I need to get the url from the address bar.
e.g., lets say i have a website embedded in the iframe as example.com...and another site embedding this iframe has the domain as abcd.com
So, the url that gets formed on accessing any content in the iframe would be like..
abcd.com/#/
I need to get this URL in the iframe.
Please help me resolving this problem. I am tryin to write a custom module for this but dunno how to proceed.
You cannot access the URL of an iframe from the outside. Think about potential XSS attacks that could occur from that:
http://yourbankingsite/account?sessid=2239872379092FEAACC2390823
Of course, this is a bad way to store the session id, but there are quite a few (and popular) sites that do this. If you had access to the iframe URL, a malicious website could be nothing but said iframe and a script to harvest the session ID.
In your iframe you could add a variable to the iframe url and use drupal 'current_path' to get the url of the iframe's parent. Then you could retrieve this variable from your iframe page(and make sure you validate it before you use it). i.e.
www.iframsite.com/iframepage?from=<?php print current_path(); ?>
This is a follow up to my previous question: Problem passing parameters via Iframe in IE. Which was never solved.
Here's the core of it:
I'm trying to execute an HTTP GET from
my website to another website that is
brought in via iframe.
On Firefox, you can see in the source
that the correct url is in the iframe
src along with it's correct
parameters-- and it works.
On IE, you can see in the source that
the correct url is in the iframe src
along with it's correct parameters--
and it doesn't work...
Is there something about IE that
doesn't let you pass parameters
through an iframe in the querystring?
I've tried refreshing the iframe in
IE, I've tried refreshing my page &
the iframe in IE, and I've tried
copying the url and re-pasting it into
the iframe src (forcing it to refresh
as if I just entered it into the
address bar for that iframe window).
Still no luck!
Anyone know why this is happening, or
have any suggestions to try to get
around this?
As for the code, all it's doing is creating
the src from the backend code on page
load and setting the src attribute
from the back end...
//Backend code to set src
mainIframe.Attributes["src"] = srcWeJustCreated;
//Front end iframe code
<iframe id="mainIframe" runat="server" />
I've made a temporary account for you to login and see exactly what I mean. That way you can use firebug or any of your other debugging techniques to figure out why this isn't working rather than having me try to explain what's going on.
EDIT: Changed the account credentials. Please use this one instead
Username: matt
Password: globalbuying
Please follow this link to get to the login page. One you login with the above credentials it will take you to the main backend page. Click the image on the left that says "Vacations", that will take to you a page with the iframe and will execute the Http Get from there.
If you need more details on what's going on in the behind code, etc., let me know and I'll post them.
Thanks,
Matt
After working my way through the HTTP requests with Fiddler2, comparing different browsers, I found that IE makes the request just fine, but fails to set any cookies in the iframe.
I also noticed that if I open that framed page by itself it does work. Even more so, after logging out again there, the iframed version works too. That's because it then already has a session cookie and the iframe no longer needs to set it.
It turns out that this is a known security restriction: IE blocks cookies in iframes. But this can be overcome with the use of the Platform for Privacy Preferences (P3P).
Here are a few links that should help you fix the problem. Starting off with another (answered) question on StackOverflow:
Cookie blocked/not saved in IFRAME in Internet Explorer
Privacy in Internet Explorer 6
IE Blocking iFrame Cookies
The example page you provided is working for me in IE8. The iframe is not as tall as in chrome, but it does have the correct page in it.
As an aside, please note that passing logon credentials via the query string is extremely unsecure and open to various exploits.
It seems that the ampersands in the iframe's URL are HTML-encoded (&).
I think that might cause IE to choke on identifying the param names. Does the problem still occur if you use plain ampersands in the URL?
If the encoding on the src attribute is happening implicitly, you might want to consider using a Literal control for testing purposes and set its Text property to the entire iframe tag to avoid any unwanted encoding.
